An update on the activities of our former No. 1 Good Guys:
Darrell Green (1999). In the past year Green has started two
more Youth Life Learning Centers -- in Greenville, N.C., and Nashville,
Tenn. -- in addition to the original one in Washington, D.C. He also
began a National Training Institute to train others to start their own
learning centers.
David Robinson (1999). Last September, Robinson opened
privately funded Carver Academy in San Antonio to 60 pre-kindergarten
through second-grade students. The initial funding for the academy came
from his $5 million donation.
Derrick Brooks (2000). After five summers of funding and
escorting Tampa boys and girls to such places as South Africa and the
western United States, Brooks took a year off.
Dikembe Mutombo (2001). The groundbreaking for his hospital in
the Congo, his native country, was last September. Construction is in
the site clearing/utility preparation stage. Medical equipment purchases
also are being developed. The project will take 33 months to complete.
